1. Neither schizophrenics nor depressives were distinguishable from other patient groups
or controls.
2. Substance abusers used hardly any red, were the lowest scoring patient group, and
scored significantly lower than controls.
3. Diagnostic differences were not distinguishable between patient groups; personality
disorder spanned all groups.
4. As expected, the mean of the controls was higher than all patient groups (although not
significantly different from any except substance abusers).
There was no evidence for red as a predictor of schizophrenic or depressive diagnosis.

for variable YELLOW *T*
